                        We will be putting together adult and kid boxes for the Homeless Shelter.  Freebie
                        hotel soaps and samples from the mail would be great.  School-type items like
                        crayons, markers, pencils, erasers, etc. are always a hit with the kids.  You can
                        pick up things really cheap at places like at McFrugals.  RSVP Janis to let her know
                        what ice cream topping you will be bringing.  Janis will provide the ice cream.

                        Midlife for Women...

                        Midlife is when you go to the doctor and you realize you are now so old
                        you have to pay someone to look at you naked.

                        The good news about midlife is that the glass is still half-full... of course
                        the bad news is that it won't be long before your teeth are floating in it.

                        Midlife women no longer have upper arms, we have wingspans ... we are
                        no longer women in sleeveless shirts, we are flying squirrels in drag.

                        Midlife has hit you when you stand naked in front of a mirror and can
                        see  your rear end without turning around.

                        You know you are getting old when you go for a mammogram and you
                        realize it is the only time someone will ask you to appear topless in film.

                        It's very hard to "get jiggy with it" in midlife... jiggly, yes, jiggy, no.

                        Midlife is when your 1970s Body-by-Jake now includes Legs-by-Rand
                        McNally (more red and blue lines than an accurately scaled map of the
                        state of Wisconsin).

                        Midlife is when you want to grab every firm young lovely in a tube top
                        and scream, "Listen, honey, even the Roman Empire fell and those things
                        will too!"

                        Midlife can bring out your angry, bitter side. You look at your latte-swilling,
                        beeper-wearing know it all teenager and think, "For this I have stretch marks?"

                        Midlife is when you start to repeat yourself... and your chins follow suit.

                        Midlife is when your memory really starts to go. The only thing you still
                        retain is water.

                        You become more reflective in midlife. You start pondering the "big"
                        questions-what is life, why am I here, how much Healthy Choice ice cream
                        can I eat before it's no longer a healthy choice?
